4:38 On one hand, correlation vs. causation ;) And on the other hand, the main thing is, phase cancellations and whatever other comb-filtering effects might happen, are far less noticeable / objectionable, the higher you go in frequency. In the low end, given the longer wavelengths, even small delays (ie. phase misalignments) can and do lead to quite obvious / dramatic effects.

I've always tried to mix sound systems where the tweets do all the highs, mids do mids, and subs do bass, with a little overlap. Now that I am getting into mixing instruments, I think of it the same way. I am slowly learning the sonic space each instrument takes up, and have been learning alot about the sonic space certain mics take up. My mixing is by far, not professional, but I have found that I intuitively use multiple tracks to mix specific frequencies and fx.. It makes me feel good to know that I am on the right track. Thank you for your great videos. I have been binge listening the past few days and have learned an invaluable amount about phase, eq and compression.

The kick drum send eq is really good trick. I used eq on returns, but it thinned out reverbs too much, so I used as little reverbs as possible. This trick works with dance music too. where the right kick drum is 50% of the music (and low end bieng 75%). Trick I can share: built sort of an hierarchy of clean-dirty sounds. For example 2 sounds doing same job (independent melody lines for example) can be differentiated if one is clean and other is saturated, but both on the same octave. Clean - saturated scale messes with melody/chord interaction, so it works best with simple music (or small band).

I am only wondering, how much of the info is also applicable to the acoustic instruments - acoustic guitars (especially those with NYLON strings), clapping, winds, Cajon, etc. I know it is quite far from your main scope, but it would be great if you could do some video about how to record, EQ and master tracks from genres like latin, ethno, jazz etc. with purely acoustic instruments. I, personally, do flamenco guitar which is even more specific, but a general guide for recording and mixing any unplugged instruments would be great. Thank you for considering this!

Well I tried to download on my iphone and did not get the “save to” dialogue. It may have downloaded into mysterious place in the iphone that I can’t get to, but I will never know. Usually I save things to USB Disk Pro app in the iphone. I checked there for unknown items and found a copy of the “Thank you” page but that was it. I checked the new ios 11 “files” app, but was not in there either. I had gone to the bitly link from within you tube. It’s a puzzle. 😊

So good thank you! Already my bass sound is tighter, stronger and stays out of the way at the same time.

Warren has just proven with this video why you shouldn't obsess over what your favorite artist gear is or what gear was used to record the music. The mixing and manipulation of the individual instruments just to get the song to work, is proof that what was recorded in..is often what's not being mastered out.

dimllc definitely! There’s a lot more to it than just copying! We can all create our own sound and reinforce our individuality with our own tools!

Great tips, especially the first is very nice. One question, sometimes I see a mono room track of drums. Why and when would you use such a track?
@Producelikeapro6 жыл бұрын
Markus Kreska great question! I love the mono in a dense mix to add energy and on a sparse mix it can be the basis of a the drum sound! I would experiment!

Hi Warren and Produce Like a Pro Community! I have a question about compression attack time and release time settings. You addressed my question in a previous video however I can’t find your original video in which you addressed this. Typically: do I want a slow attack time along w a fast release? Or should I start w a fast attack time w a slow release? Especially in the context of drums or bass, where I don’t want to fudge the initial transient and I’d like a thicker/punchier and generally more consistency of source using compression.
@Producelikeapro6 жыл бұрын
Jeremy Whisenhunt marvellous question! Yes, I do remember answering it! Vary your Attack time to allow transients to come through, great for exaggerating them! Changing your release times to be closer to the tempo to the music is a great way keep those transients exaggerated. There’s so many great ways to use compression! I would recommend getting a drum loop and experimenting with Attack and release times!

Great tips as always! Good to hear again about all the build up in different frequencies. I wonder, what are the things you do in solo and what do you do in full mix (or a full mix of the instrument you're mixing)? I try to get the sound that I want of an instrument (in solo) and then cut/boost later per instrument when I mix all instruments together. What is your workflow in this? Thanks again Warren! So much too learn, so little time to practice the art....

I actually do have a question, if you don't mind me asking: I do understand why a lot of people do use the de-esser to control the high end, and everyone says the same thing, that it is essentially a high frequency multi-band compressor. The idea behind is is pretty clear. What I don't fully understand, is why not use just a multi-band compressor? Just because of the ease of use and knowing what the de-esser is doing, or do you think it does sound different from other multi-band compressors like C4, PRO-MB, etc?
@Producelikeapro6 жыл бұрын
Hi Edward, I find the DeEsser is a finely pointed high frequency multi band compressor, with a C4 etc you can vary the width of the Frequencies selected, so it might be more useful in that circumstance where you have multiple high end issues!
